    Hi everyone,
    so I have passed AUD and BEC, I have until Sept 2017 to pass FAR and REG. but I am starting to panic. Busy season is approaching at work, I don’t know what order to do the tests in and I’m afraid I’ll lose credit for the two I’ve passed. Is it weird to be more panicked now at the halfway mark than I was before I passed any? Do you think I have enough time to finish and what order would you recommend? Plz send help. Thank you in advance

    I remember being more stressed out about the exams once I had one passed due to the credit windows. You have about 10 months to finish two exams which is more than doable. Both of the exams you have left have quite a bit of material but I would recommend taking FAR before REG. But in reality, you have to take them all and pass them all at some point so the order really isn't that important. Just stay calm, and know that if you've passed two exams you can surely pass the remaining two. Good luck!

    FAR - 80
    AUD - 82
    BEC - 80
    REG - 85

    ETHICS - 90

    Since REG is changing a lot come April 1st, I'd recommend taking REG and getting it out of the way.

    @ps8904 I am in the exact same boat. Passed BEC and AUD already, BEC expires 10/17. I'm already feeling the anxiety of possibly losing BEC and having to take the 2017 version. Plus the potential 10 week exam score release from an April exam is maddening.
    Best of luck to you! Let's get it done.

    FAR: 39,59,TBD
    BEC: 74,79
    AUD: 77
    REG: September

    Many thanks friends, I feel better reading all your responses. I had originally planned to take FAR and then tackle REG in the spring but I do want to finish REG before the updates. So I sent in my NTS for REG only, and hopefully I'll be able to schedule it for February, giving myself a solid six weeks to study what with all the holidays. Thank you CPA2BEE and good luck Meg & Something!
